Default Gulf seafood deformities alarm scientists

Gulf seafood deformities alarm scientists

Eyeless shrimp and fish with lesions are becoming common, with BP oil pollution believed to be the likely cause.

New Orleans, LA - "The fishermen have never seen anything like this," Dr Jim Cowan told Al Jazeera. "And in my 20 years working on red snapper, looking at somewhere between 20 and 30,000 fish, I've never seen anything like this either."

And while the well spewed millions and millions of gallons of oil into the gulf... for 53 days ... before the president could be bothered to interrupt his fund raising/golf outings to appear to give a crap, he still had no idea as to whether the MMS chief was either fired or resigned.

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/pos...chief_res.html

But all is well now, he just let them pollute the water with even more toxic compounds in order to make it appear that the oil "disappeared"




Ou oh.... Thought we'd be outta office before this sh1t hit the fan....

Fortunately, by passing laws that restrict the media from actually reporting the news (under fear of not conforming to the state's wishes and thus being categorized as an enemy of the state {{TERRORIST!!}} and subject endless detainment), this hasn't been publicized:

or this:

or what we now know of the environmental impact of the dispersants:

Known long before Al Jazeera decided to promote the downfall of the Gulf.

Of course, they are the only ones safe to report the truth under BO's administration's watch.

Crazy freakin world, man.

Wrong. What an outright falsehood about the President's response.

Unfortunately, his account of the president's behavior was quite correct.

Exactly how many days had transpired before he finally decided it might be a good idea to sit down with BP Execs including Tony Hayward for the first time?


Here's a Clue - I'm thinking of a number between 52 and 54 days

Up until that point, he sat on his hands, blamed BP whenever he was asked questioned it, told Thad Allen to basically stay out of the way, and just sit back and watch the clusterfuk unfold with absolutely no sense of urgency whatsoever. His commanding presence and direction was to simply "let BP handle it" - as he had numerous fund raising dinners and of course the endless golf outings on his calendar.

pretty damn accurate from what I remember.

Obama was an embarassment with his response. If it had been Bush, the media would have killed him.

Oh jeez. I'm actually with you that Obama's response to the spill was weak, but please cut the "Bush was persecuted by the media" bullshit out.
